For preparation for next year, my class went to Knebworth house in order for us to create a music video. We were allowed to choose our own groups which meant we could include a various of skills to create a project to the best of our ability. In my group there was Myself, Dan Greenall, Ellie Mcgregor and Beth Gray.
The first preparation we did was in class a few days before the trip and this was to choose a song we would use for our music video. We all decided on a group decision was the song 'Heat wave' by Wiley. This was a current summer song in the charts which linked with the scenery as it was surrounded by plants and outdoor objects. Once we had chosen the song we decided on what rolls we were going to do individually and as a group. Myself, Ellie and Dan were going to be in the music video while Beth recorded with the video camera. We all put in our own ideas such as framing shots, Editing styles and costuming. Ellie had her own camera which was much more technically better which meant our shots would be a better quality.
We were only allowed an hour at Knebworth house which meant that timing was extremely important in order to get everything we needed to finish this project. I feel that the shots we included show a good example of team work and I feel the lip sinking we did was also good quality. However, some of the shots are quite repeptitive, which is the only negative thing I feel there is about our project. But, saying this, when we looked at other music videos they tend to repeat shots to link with how they repeat the chorus of the song.
